Yearly awards should look more traditional imo. I'm not sold on being different. And winner of Tim Hortons player of the year award is................... ray, rkomar, BuzzAndSting and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greatest Cockney Rip Off Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 That From Stone doc was really good. It was great to get a view of football, art and culture in Nunavut. It is shame it has only been viewed a few hundred times as I think it would have interest beyond followers of the CPL. Ivan and Kent 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dealing with bears is basically an old term which meant dealing with troubles. Basically it was implied any progress or momentum that Canadian soccer has started or built over 100 years, has been knocked down by people/circumstances/provincial squabbles/other reasons, or bears. Running into a headwind means the same thing. I listened to the podcast, and it sounded to me like they literally meant "bears". That is, it's hard to run a league where you have bears rampaging on the pitches and in the stands. I think it was a silly joke about our frontier way of life in Canada. England has no large predators left in it, so I think there is some grudging admiration of countries where such "dangers" still exist. I laughed at the joke, so I was fine with it.

CPL should push for the same. We're dealing with outdoor stadiums and with "experts" now saying little chance of coronavirus spread with the thousands of protests that went on recently outdoors, more the reason to push for it now and social distancing will be followed more at a stadium than it was (or wasn't) with these protests that were allowed even though they violated mass gatherings guidelines.

I’m no ‘expert’ but it all seems a bit like putting a condom on after you’ve already gotten the girl pregnant. Seriously though, if people are uncomfortable, they don’t have to attend.

"People protested black people being killed and violated mass gathering rules, so I should be allowed in to a stadium" is pretty tacky reasoning.

To be fair, the virus doesn’t care about how noble or worthwhile one’s social (or mass) gathering may be. The horse is out of the barn. There’s no sense in pretending that we can do much more than take individual responsibility for healthy practices at this point. Weeks on end of protests, as well as riots (in the US at least) have ended lockdown and quarantine as a viable solution imo.

To be fair, the virus doesn't care how much you want to go a soccer game either. And it doesn't make the comparison between protests over police brutality and "I'm bored, let me go to a soccer game" any less tacky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
